Casa del Mar

Casa del Mar sits at 1910 Ocean Way, perched where the coastal development meets the sand. You are steps away from Santa Monica State Beach, placing the surf within sight of the property’s outdoor pool.

While the city’s other coastal outposts often force a trade-off between ocean access and proximity to the urban bustle, this hotel finds a middle ground that makes the decision easier. A fifteen-minute walk puts you at either the Santa Monica Pier or the Third Street Promenade, but the property remains buffered from the heaviest tourist foot traffic. Choosing this hotel is a vote for the beachfront experience over the interior city streets; you get the shoreline atmosphere without needing to navigate the high-density crowds of the downtown corridors.
